One last set of results for Round Robin, before we get into the Playoffs! Again lots of points up for grabs this round, with match 1 seeing the most picked up (partly thanks to another 5-player map that afforded a lot of bonus points for various guesses). The rule of all players being required to build in Round Robin also led to a lot of guaranteed points being handed out for guessing yet unplayed builders, which has also led to some predictable results graphs!

R5M1

Ghirardelli's Dream: An obvious guess here in Splitvision who shows up in 92% of guesses, with the remaining guessers being members of the Hurricanes. Ballpitwarrior and Terry Inferno also show up in a little under half of the guesses, their styles perhaps becoming more distinct. Bluetiful_Monday and kenos also showed up however, tripping some up.

Neo Hot Springs: The top 3 here are again the remaining unplayed members of the Soda Jerks: Ziscor, Gamma and Sens. Beyond those three, dr dirt appears in almost 40% of guesses showing that the clear macro and PT2 style was correctly twigged by quite a few. Inthemanual only showed up in ~10% of guesses however, given his lower builder share.

R5M2

Ol' Smokey's Showboat: Coupon was the remaining builder here and was thus correctly guessed by 84% of players (and 100% of non-Dambusters). And in one of the largest guesses for a non-guaranteed player, alex picked up more than 60% of guesses, displaying his clean style on a unique map. Trav was the next most-guessed and fooled around a third of guessers, just ahead of hoobaroo who a third guessed correctly.

Bene Volantes: Newcomer Sadret was guaranteed to build this round and with the clever plugin use it was no surprise. Fisch played a similar role to alex and appeared in 76% of guesses, his clear concept and style coming through immediately. Interestingly, Six Frags only appeared in 28% of the guesses despite being responsible for 30% of the build, while RWE and Lurker both appear in 36% of guesses.

R5M3

Chateau Frontenac: Another guaranteed pair results in RobDedede and AmusementParker both receiving 78% of the guesses, giving some easy points out. The rest of the lineup was a little harder for people to parse, with SSSammy and mamarillas being guessed by fewer than a fifth of people, while deanosrs and CHE appeared more frequently. Team synergy at work?

Cedar Point's Maverick: The one park without any guaranteed builders, and consequently it has the more even distribution. AJ- was guessed by almost 70% of players despite not showing up on the map at all, while Brightside comes up in second with just over half correctly guessing his majority role. Supporting builders Tolsimir and Suormot were more difficult for people to guess, receiving ~20% of the picks each.

Standings Update: Round 5

With a number of guaranteed points on offer, everyone did decently well, and RWE managed a double-perfect score in R5M1 even! As far as the standings go, things in the top flight haven't shifted very much as AVC cements a stronger lead of 8 points ahead of Gustav in second. With just a few rounds left in the contest, will he maintain his position?

Winner

The poll is now closed. The final voting score was:

A close win for the Lonely Hearts Club who earn their fourth of the contest and complete their Round Robin journey with a victory largely secured by two of their lower seeded players, more than proving their weight in points. An unfortunate loss for the Jazzcats, however their earlier dominating wins in the contest enshrine their place in the Playoffs.
